Real Madrid and Liverpool are believed to be the two favourites for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham.

The English midfielder, who currently plays for Borussia Dortmund is believed to be a high priority target for Liverpool and Real Madrid, and his fine performance at the World has raised his value to well over £100m.

Ex-Liverpool star, Dietmar Hamann has raised doubts that Jude Bellingham is worth the huge transfer fee being associated with him.

The former Liverpool man also rubbished comparisons between the England international and Reds legend, Steven Gerrard.

He said on talkSPORT: “I’d be careful with Bellingham right now. He’s an exceptional talent, he showed that at the World Cup, but if Dortmund ask for £100-million odd, £140-150 million, it’s a big risk as well.

“I think with Bellingham, he’s got to find a position. He models himself of Steven Gerrard but I don’t think he’s got the ability and pace going forward like Gerrard had.

“I think you need to wait and see where he finds his spot in the midfield two or midfield three in the future, and to pay £150million for an 18 or 19-year-old, I think it’s a big risk.”
